Answer:

The witches predict his future. In the words of Terminator, "There is no fate, but what we make." Therefore, once the idea of being king was placed in Macbeth's mind, the murder was put into motion. Still, it was Lady Macbeth who seems to have more influence over her husband's actions than the witches.
