How does one give glory to God. Or do we eat and drink to the glory of God as 1 Corinthians 10:31 says?
Perhaps a key verse...
Psalm 50:23a “Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: ...”

Verses dealing with glorifying God...
Luke 23:47 “Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying Certainly this was a righteous man.”
Matt 27:54 “Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.”
John 15:8 "Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit..."
Acts 11:18 “When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.”
Verses dealing with God's glory...
1 Chronicles 16:29 “Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; Bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.”
Isaiah 43:8 “I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.”
Something to think about. Who gets the praise for a nice cold glass of water on a hot day? Your self for a job well done, the person who brought you the water for being so thoughtful, or perhaps the One who gave us the sense to appreciate a cold glass of water in the first place. The glory belongs to God.
What is God's glory?
It is something visible...
Deut 5:24...Behold, the LORD our God hath shewed us his glory and his greatness..."
It filled the tabernacle, the temple, and it will fill the whole earth...
Isaiah 6:3 "...the whole earth is full of his glory."
It is declared by creation...
Ps 19:1 "The heavens declare the glory of God, ..."
It will endure forever...
Ps 104:32 "The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever..."
But it has not been fully revealed...
2 Cor 3:18 "But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord..."
It will light the new heaven and earth...
Rev 21:23 "And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof."
It seems that God's glory is the visible manifestation of God Himself, and we glorify God by praising Him. Giving glory to God is outwardly giving to Him that which He is due.
