The order of panels would be the same as you would get by

So what you really need to figure out is how to explicitly specify the 
order of levels when creating a factor. In other words, this is not a 
lattice issue.

How best to do this depends on details you haven't given, specifically, 
what you think the 'logical' order is. Reading ?factor 
and ?reorder.factor might help.
