I recently had my nrakes done on my 07 gs 450h and the warning brake light alomg with vsc and ecb lights on
How do I reset the brake warning light? I saw that there is a way to do so using a clip or wire in the obd connection port is this correct and if so how is it done exactly?

Welcome to CL!
You shouldn't be seeing any lights if the brakes were changed properly. There are sensors in the wheel hubs that feed into the ABS system – it sounds like the mechanic damaged one of these sensors. If he bled the brakes, it could also be an air bubble in the brake system, but you'd have other signs if that were the case.
These lights didn't come on until after the brakes were changed, correct?

Actually the lights were coming on before the job was done in which I assumed they were doing so because if the brakes needing to be changed. The dash shows my traction light, vsc,ecb,brake and abs as of now.
read the codes.. might be your brake actuator.. if so, do NOT reset and take it to lexus dealer. (check if your car is part of the service campaign first)
yupe. use the paper clip method, i used it to reset mine. it's pretty straight forward step, i just don't remember which thread is it.
edit : try this below

If the code is able to be cleared, jumper connectors TC and EG (PINS 13 and 4)at the DLC 3 and press the brake 8+ times in 5 seconds. The pic and description below is just for reference and not the pins you need!
