Why do you think Abraham Lincoln would free slaves that were technically a part of the confederacy?

Why could Lincoln only free the slaves in the states that were in rebellion and not all of the slaves throughout the country? The president did not have the power to end slavery within the United States; this would have been a matter of changing the Constitution, which cannot be done by the president alone.
