There has been a useful discussion thread on this issue as detailed below. Macbeth is most certainly the focus of the witches' as they make reference to meeting him in the eighth line of the play. However, Banquo is also challenged by their ambiguous and engaging prophesies. It is what each character chooses to do with the temptations they are faced with which outlines their fate.
Lady Macbeth calls on the spirits and evil forces to support her in the plan to kill Duncan. She too pays for her evil desires.
