Prayer.
more specifically, both are a transactional relationship. deities gain power through the prayer and devotion of mortal souls. like Goku with the spirit bomb. you don't actually lose anything in the transaction, but it will go away of you stop praying and following your deities rules.
warlocks on the other hand typically lose something in the transaction. but really it's just a more traditional transaction is all. you have some patron of some power beyond mortals and they want something other than prayer because they are not divine and prayer won't help them much. most classically this is a demon giving power in exchange for a soul, but it could also be the tooth fairy in exchange for the molars of your enemies if you really wanted.
I really like the Warlock in the Weekly Roll comic. Their patron is a traditional angel.
