The writer urges them to pray for him, and that he might be "restored to them soon". This indicates that the writer knew the recipients well.
He then closes with a final greeting, reminding them of what God has done for them. He is the God of peace, and the one who raised Jesus from the dead. He prays that God will equip them with all that they need in order to do His will.We have an unlimited supply in God.
The final words mention Timothy, who is presumably the Timothy who worked closely with Paul. These last few verses are really the only part of the letter which seems to lend support to Paul being the author.
