So many people think the miracle are the "acts of God", supernatural displays, the Hollywood ending... Even this old cartoon song is correct that any breakthrough is about belief and faith.
In the Israelite Exodus, the people probably did not just get up and leave like the cartoon at the drop of a hat. They were slaves. And it took faith to pack, convince everyone to go and not care about the impending military threat. Moses was a prince but he believed enough to negotiate with Pharaoh, convince his people and prepare for a journey that could have been quite short.
Too much focus is on the esoteric things that are supposed to happen to convince us of change. Miracles for atheists and religious alike is about seeing something most people cannot see and living like the solution has already happened. This is actually called change.
