Both Abraham and Melchizedek recognized and honored God as the Most High, the Creator of the earh and heaven, They saw him as being the supreme being and the Only God to praise and adore. Abraham did not want Melchizedek to think that he had made him rich and that it was God alone who had done all this. Melchizedek was also a king but did not put himself above God. Abraham knew who God was and obeyed him in all things.
