How to use sortable plugin to manualy sort results coming from database?

Hi Guys

I have a results that is read from the database using PHP. Now, I want to make somehow a way to sort the results so i can display them to the public in a way i sort them not based on the item id!

So I created a new field with sorting order value. But how to I do change the sort orders using "sortable" plugin?
