The might of the heart centres around the idea that physical strength doesn’t always translate to being a better Christian. What is important in belief in God and that through God strength will be given. This is a theme constantly repeated in the realm of Narnia.
First seen with the fact that the saviours of this world are children. Aslan himself is a lion and yet at the end of the day it comes down to four children to save the day. This continues with the choice for the Pevensie’s to come back to Narnia as children in Prince Caspian. The last time they left Narnia they were well into their 30’s but the laws of Narnia chose to bring them back as children because with their belief in Aslan their physical strength is of less importance.
He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.
Isaiah 40:29

The second film further illustrates this point with Lucy and Reepicheep. Reepicheep is arguably the greatest warrior and yet he is a mouse. His strength and power come from his heart and his spirit not his size. Similarly with Lucy, she is sent on the most important mission, to find Aslan. After completing this she stands at the end of a bridge with little more than a dagger in her hand to defend against the approaching army. This image is striking because she isn’t scared, she knows that as long as Aslan, or God, is beside her she can take on anything.
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10
