Prevent what?
SQL returns unordered sets of data unless you specifically impose an
order using an ORDER BY clause.
Did PostgreSQL ignore your ORDER BY clause? If so, that would be a
problem worth reporting.
But if your query did not impose an ORDER BY clause, it is entirely
proper for the database engine to return data in whatever order it
finds most convenient.
