Default Battery, ABS Problem

Hello,
I have a 2004 GS300 and Sunday the Brake, ABS, VSC and the VSC OFF lights came on along with a long beep sound. It also lagged a bit when I started it today. I haven't driven it since Sunday either.The battery light hasn't come on yet but when started the lights flicker. I'm wondering if a weak battery will cause this to happen? Any suggestions will be appreciated? Thank you

Yes, weak battery will cause those issues.

Low voltage will cause the ABS warnings, check Battery and Alternator.

Thanks, I was about to have it towed to a mechanic in the morning. I'm going to replace the battery first.
