The Meissner effect is that a permanent magnetic field is pushed out of a superconductor. Since the magnetic field inside the superconductor is zero, there must be a source of the opposite magnetic field. This source is the superconducting current. Because of the perfect diamagnetism, a magnet can levitate above a superconductor.
The repulsive force between a simple superconductor and a magnet is negligible. (Attention: there is also a YBCO domain superconductor with which you can show the quantum locking of the magnetic field and the power of the levitation force)
