The full meaning of that passage is lost when the divine name of Almighty God is hidden. The original text included the Hebrew version of the name "Jehovah".
While all of creation tends to magnify the Creator, only intelligent humans can utter meaningful praise of Him by His personal name. The Scriptures help readers understand that Almighty God wants praise from humans, using his personal name. Incidentally, the question seems to paraphrase Psalm 150:6, which reads thusly:

You compliment Him. some want to sing approximately him, write songs, or basically study the Bible. yet a super element to do, every day, is to assert, "thank you, Lord." on your prayer. keep in mind that He has given you existence. Glorify: tr. v. a million. to furnish glory, honor, or intense compliment to; exalt. 2. To reason to be or look greater wonderful or astounding than is the absolute case: Your descriptions have glorified an familiar abode right into a mansion. 3. to furnish glory to, notably with the aid of worship. You honor him, worship Him, and love Him, because of the fact He loves you greater advantageous than something. God Bless You, and superb desires.

There are many false Gods such as Allah who is the moon God and Baal etc.
But there's only one true God and that's the God of Abraham,Moses,Isaac and Jacob.
He reigns supreme and is the creator of all there is and to live to glorify Him simply means to accept His only begotten son Jesus Christ who lives to Glorify the Father.
Jesus is the tree of life and by accepting Him we no longer live by our own understanding but by the Spirit our Lord and Savior.
If we live for Jesus instead of living for ourselves this is Glorifying God our Father in Heaven.

God- Jehovah-Adonai- whatever you wanna call the father of Jesus and creator, the Great IAM, whatever name you use that specifically adresses Jesus' Christ's father.
Words: Things- whatever talents God has given you, lets say your only good at making brownies- make em for the church and have abake sale or give em to a child of the confregation for a bday present, your a singer? sing at church for the Lord, Your a dancer? learn messanic dance steps for the church and teach the children to praise the lord with dance, your good a changing tires? change the tires for the church members or church bus, Your good at being...well- yourself? a good personality? cheer someone up in the churhcthat needs it or anyone, Youve got the gift of Gab? use it to speak with the masses to getc them into the house of God and check it out! See? do ALL things to glorify God, but unfortunatly, people sometimes do bad things and say theyre glorifying whenthey are really hurting the name of God. See?

I guess the simplest way to put it is;
Don't do any thing that would not bring glory to God, or not glorify Him.
My dictionary says that "glorify" means > to honor or worship, to make exalted or blessed.
glory means > something that brings or deserves honor, praise or renown.
As to which one, there is only one God.

Actually the phrase says "Do all things to the glory of God"
It's talking about excesses, like obesity etc.
