Reluctant states wanted the control, the final document for Article of Confederation allowed state government to retain most of their power and restricted national government to provide common defense. There was no national executive (president) and no judiciary (supreme court). The new system became more of a representative order and allowed people to speak for their state. It was also meant to prevent tyranny (imbalance power of one) by central authority. See more on check and balance.

Does the constitution gives the government unlimited power?
No, the constitution does not give unlimited power, in fact it gives only limited powers to the government. There are 3 types of powers: Expressed, Implied, and Reserved. Expressed Powers - powers for the Federal government that are not specifically stated in the Constitution. Implied Powers - powers for the federal government that are actually written down in the constitution. Reserved Powers - powers given to state government (basically the left-over powers that the Federal government isn't in charge of.)
