Jesus said this at:
Matthew 8:10, when the army officer in Capernaum showed great faith .
Matthew 25:12, when explaining that some will not be able to get into the Kingdom because of their self-serving behavior.
John 8:40+45, when he spoke to the religious leaders of his day who were trying to kill him for telling the truth
John 16:7, when he was telling his disciples that he was going away to his father in heaven, for their benefit.
78 times in the gospels the words of Jesus "I tell You the Truth" are recorded. I did not count to see how many of these times are retellings by the different authors of the same teaching.
"I am the Way, the TRUTH, and the life. No man cometh unto the Father but by Me." Jesus said these words in John 6:14, so Jesus is the truth.
The bible does not say anything about dreaming for Jesus.
At least twice Jesus spoke the words "I tell You the Truth" in the book of John according to the King James Version translation. And it appears 11 times if using the NIV 1984 translation.John 8:45And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.John 16:7Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.Different translations change and vary the wording so exact counts are tricky. So in John 3:11 when John writes "Verily, verily, I say unto thee..." in KJV, this is translated to "I tell you the truth" in the NIV 1984 translation. This is also written as "Amen, amen I say" in the Douay-Rheims Bible so it depends on which translation you're using.

John 17 1 These words spake Jesus... 17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
"I am the Way, the TRUTH, and the life. No man cometh unto the Father but by Me." Jesus said these words in John 6:14, so Jesus is the truth.
Jesus Christ was not alive in His earthly body yet in the time of the Old Testament. Therefore He did not say "I tell you the truth" at all in the Old Testament.
The bible does not say anything about dreaming for Jesus.
The Bible does not say either of those things.
John 16:12, 13 - "I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come." [NKJV]
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
