Every time I return to the over world through the nether portal, I appear at a random area in the world instead of spawning in the portal I originally used. The coordinates of those places where I end up have no pattern whatsoever.
Is there a way to fix this issue? Or do I have to delete the world entirely?
I also did not install any mods, texture packs and this is a Single player world updated to the newest version of Minecraft up to this point in time. In addition, the coordinates in which these portals appear are completely random and ever time I leave the nther, the portal spawns me in some other place.

This is a known bug in earlier versions of the game.
An easy way to solve this that I have seen work before is to completely destroy the 'new' portal that appears in the overworld. Once done, you should be able to enter your portal and exit from the same portal.
To help avoid this, you should also never install a portal in your world in an area that is at all enclosed. The portal system seems to dislike portals appearing in places they should 'not be' based on the initial construction of the world.
Also avoid dying, as it can cause random nether portals to form in parts of your world.
Note this question may be a duplicate of this, but since this question never got fully resolved, the two should maybe be merged.
