Set StaticResource style of a control in code behind

It has been more than 4 years now since this question was asked, but I want to post an answer just to share my findings.

For example if there is a Style BlueButton described in Application resource in App.xaml (Xamarin Cross-Platform App development), it can be used as follows

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><Application xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
         xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
         x:Class="SharedUi.App">
<Application.Resources>
    <ResourceDictionary>
        <Style x:Key="BlueButton" TargetType="Button">
            <Setter Property="TextColor" Value="White" />
            <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="20" />
            <Setter Property="BackgroundColor" Value="Blue"/>
            <Setter Property="HeightRequest" Value="70"/>
            <Setter Property="FontAttributes" Value="Bold"/>
        </Style>            
    </ResourceDictionary>
</Application.Resources></Application>

Then in the code behind

Button newButton1 = new Button
{
    Text = "Hello",
    WidthRequest = (double)15.0,
    Style = (Style)Application.Current.Resources["BlueButton"]
};

You can set, Something like this,

  TextBlock myTextBlock= new TextBlock ()
    {
        FontFamily = new FontFamily("Segoe UI Light");
        Style = Resources["TextBlockStyle"] as Style,
    };
