Although bearing similarities, miracle and magic are unequivocally different. The most prominent difference between 'miracle' and 'magic' is in their source.
Miracle comes as a result of spirituality, while magic, is a physical activity.
Miracle is unexplainable, cannot be backed by science and defies logic or critical human reasoning. Those who believe in miracles, use the subjectivity of their faith (that is, to believe) to get the miracle they seek. While those who do not believe, see it as a mere coincidence. They do not believe in the existence of a spiritual entity. Simply put, to them, "seeing is believing".
Magic, on the other hand, is done by carrying out tricks and illusions. The audience are entertained by a magician, who capitalises on their short-sightedness to stage tricks or illusions of seemingly impossible factors using natural means, which they make to appear real. It most be noted that science plays a major role in magic.
Magic is a performing art and profession as opposed to miracle, which is a result of one's faith.
Magic has the power to entertain. Miracles have the power to transform the heart.
