Rebbe Nachman of Breslov says in Likkutei Moharan #54 that the primary meditation that a Jew should have when he first opens his eyes and says “Modeh ani” is to remember the Next World, so that he doesn’t fall prey to a deadening of the heart.

Rabbi Yechezkel Levenstein, זצוק״ל, says two interrelated things about the Exodus. First, that Israel as a people was born at the time of the Exodus, not before and not after. And second, that someone who believes in all of the events leading up to the Exodus and all the events following the Exodus, but who does not believe in the Exodus itself, has a great gap in his Emunah as a Jew. The Exodus from Egypt is the basis for Israel as a people and its relationship with the Creator. And although he does not say this explicitly, we can see it from the language of the first Dibbur, the first word given to us at Mount Sinai: “I am the Eternal your Power, Who took you from the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery.”
