Well, it is Lady Macbeth's plan really, although Macbeth was tempted by a similar idea. The idea was to kill the king and put the blame on his servants. Macbeth is Duncan's cousin, and so might succeed to the throne.
She hears of the prophesy through her husband, not from the source, but even so, she plans the murder. She is determined to convince Macbeth that he should kill Duncan because she understands that his relationship with the King and his loyalty - or lack of loyalty - could hinder the process. She is automatically enamoured by the idea of being Queen and is ruthless enough to commit (or help to commit) evil deeds in order to succeed. This Machiavellian concept and the couple's ambition is their ultimate downfall.

In Macbeth the quote that suggests that the witches are misleading Macbeth is one from the very beginning. The quote reads ' They met me in the day of success: and I have learned by the perfectest report, they have more in them than mortal knowledge'. This quote implies that the witches may not have supernatural powers according to Macbeth's thoughts, therefore meaning they are tempting to mislead him.
The purpose of the witches at the beginning of the play is to set the scene and introduce the theme of fate vs. free will that is incorporated throughout the entire novel, and it gives an idea of how Macbeth will be affected by these witches. :)
