My reaction to this quote is that Abraham Lincoln is referring to the ideal that once people have power they tend to abuse it for their advantage, and personal gain. For Example, gerrymandering.

This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.
The bow of God's wrath is bent . . . it is nothing but the mere pleasure of God, and that of an angry God, without any promise or obligation at all, that keeps the arrow one moment from being made drunk with your blood.

God is eager to wage war.
God is fiercely angry.
God is feeling extreme grief.
Answer: God is fiercely angry.
Explanation:
This excerpt from Jonathan Edwards´' Sinners in the hands of an angry god', uses the metaphor of the string of a bow being bent, meaning that an arrow is ready to be released, as a comparison with God being on the verge of killing men because of how angry he is with humanity´s sins or loss of faith in Christianity.
