this will help you

WindowsFormsApplication1
{
     public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        static Label statusMessageLabel;
        public static string StatusText { set { statusMessageLabel.Text = value; } }

        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            statusMessageLabel = label1;

            // from anywhere ->
            Form1.StatusText = "a message";
        }
    }

}
