Bible Question (short): "Every rhema ?"

Question (full): Man shall live by every "rhema" that comes (Greek continuos tense) from the mouth of God.
For many years I thought that this text referred only to the written word. Jesus gave the good example by quoting the written word to Satan, which I seek to follow.
However, the Greek seems to imply that there is "rhema" which is continually coming from God.
Also, it is a quotation from Deut. which the Israelites were to keep when they did not have the full scriptures.
What then is "every rhema" coming from the mouth of God?
Or where am I going wrong in this interpretation?
